6 months ago I ran out of blade adjustment on my Stanley #95 Edge Trimming Plane. An ongoing search on ebay failed to find a replacement, so I made the decision to make my own using a spare block plane iron with matching notches on the back. (replacement iron shown left in attachments).

Good job Stewie. I have the Lie Nielsen reproduction as well as the Veritas R and L hand version. I do like the 95.

Stewie,
Cool idea, and it turned out really well! Great job, and I know from experience that sometimes parts on some planes can be really tough to come up with, either that or somewhat painful to the wallet.
Regards,
Stew

Thanks Stew; international shipping to oz from the UK and USA is nowadays extremely painful to the wallet.
Fortunately most of my vintage tool purchases were made at a time when it was far cheaper to invest.
regards Stewie;
